We value as a company giving back to the community and partnering with organizations that align with our mission and core values. Here’s a glimpse into some of the organizations and nonprofits we support as a company.

11-30-2021

Here at Resplendent, giving back to the community is important to us, and it’s something we take seriously as a company throughout all of our offices. We believe that by collaborating with, giving to, and getting to know other organizations and nonprofits that align with our missions, we are able to grow as a business and better serve others in our community.  

Every quarter, Resplendent donates to an organization in both Arkansas and Texas that align with our mission. As a corporation, we believe that feminism is for everyone, Black lives matter, LGBTQIA Rights are Human Rights, Mental Health is important, no one should go hungry, and that everyone should have equal access to vote. With this in mind, our past and current charitable giving recipients demonstrate these values in their work, employees and company goals.

This year, we have partnered with The Urban League of the State of Arkansas, Lifeworks Austin and Little Pedal Alliance to receive our donations. Learn more about them below.

The Urban League of the State of Arkansas is a registered non-profit organization created around improving, advancing and obtaining equal opportunities for all citizens, with a specific focus on areas of health, jobs, education and housing.

Moving forward, we have plans to work with and grow our relationship with nonprofit organizations like Arkansas Soul and E4 Youth. 

Arkansas Soul is a nonprofit digital media platform geared toward BIPOC – primarily by BIPOC- in Arkansas that works to create an empowering and comfortable space for Arkansas residents within the BIPOC community specifically when it comes to Arkansas news, local events, and stories on health, wellness, art and culture. Their mission is to share, produce, and support all forms of digital media for diverse audiences in Arkansas, while recovering the histories and underrepresented stories of diverse audiences in regional pockets through the state. Arkansas Soul wants to highlight the beauty, culture, and power behind minority populations thriving. Arkansas Soul is built on three mission statements; to connect with Black and Brown voices, to mentor and support emerging journalistic talent, and elevate minority reporting to mainstream media.

E4 Youth is a nonprofit organization that has helped thousands of youth, ages 16-22, learn to engage, educate, employ and empower themselves; hence the name E4 Youth.

E4 Youth also has “Get Creative Enrichment Clubs” which are based at six major minority high schools throughout Austin and the surrounding area, which have served over 100+ students within the past year.
